Simultaneous Determination of Schisandrin and Promethazine with Its Metabolite in Rat Plasma by HPLC-MS/MS and Its Application to a Pharmacokinetic Study.

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to develop a selective, simple, and sensitive HPLC-MS/MS method for the simultaneous determination of schisandrin and promethazine (PMZ) with its metabolite in rat plasma, which was further used for a pharmacokinetic herb-drug interaction study. HPLC-MS/MS analyses were performed on an Agilent Technologies 1290 LC and a 6410 triple quadrupole mass spectrometer. The following parameters, the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ), calibration curve, accuracy, precision, stability, matrix effect, and recovery, were validated. The linear range of the developed method for PMZ, its metabolite promethazine sulfoxide (PMZSO), and schisandrin in rat plasma was 0.5-200?ng/mL (R 2?>?0.995), with an LLOQ of 0.5?ng/mL, which completely met the determination requirements of biosamples. The intra- and interday precision (RSD, %) was below 13.31% (below 16.67% for the LLOQ) in various plasma, whose accuracy (bias, %) was from -8.52% to 11.40%, which were both within an acceptable range. This method was successfully applied to a pharmacokinetic herb-drug interaction study after oral administration of PMZ with or without S. chinensis water extract. The results demonstrated that coadministration with the S. chinensis water extract might affect the pharmacokinetic behaviors of PMZ. In turn, when taken together with PMZ, the pharmacokinetic parameters of schisandrin, the main active component of S. chinensis, were also affected. The method established in the current study was selective, simple, sensitive, and widely available with good linearity, high accuracy and precision, and a stable sample preparation process. Moreover, this analytical method provides a significant approach for the investigation of herb-drug interaction between S. chinensis and PMZ. The potential pharmacokinetic herb-drug interaction of PMZ- and schisandrin-containing preparations should be noted.

Project description:Guanjiekang (GJK) that is formed by five medicinal herbs including Astragali Radix, Aconiti Lateralis Radix Praeparaia, Glycyrrhizae Radix et Rhizoma, Corydalis Rhizoma and Paeoniae Radix Alba was used for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of active components in GJK remains unclear. This study aims to evaluate the pharmacokinetic behavior of seven representative active constituents in GJK (i.e., benzoylhypaconine, benzoylmesaconine, paeoniflorin, tetrahydropalmatine, calycosin-7-glucoside, formononetin and isoliquiritigenin) after oral administration of GJK in rats. A rapid, sensitive and reliable ultra-performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometer (UPLC-MS/MS) method has been successfully developed for the simultaneous determination of these seven constituents in rat plasma. Chromatographic separation was achieved on a C18 column with a gradient elution program that consists of acetonitrile and water (containing 0.1% formic acid) at a flow rate of 0.35 mL/min. Detection was performed under the multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) in the positive electrospray ionization (ESI) mode. The calibration curves exhibited good linearity (R² > 0.99) over a wide concentration range for all constituents. The accuracies ranged from 92.9% to 107.8%, and the intra-day and inter-day precisions at three different levels were below 15%. Our PK results showed that these seven compounds were quickly absorbed after the administration of the GJK product, and Tmax ranged from 30 min to 189 min. The in vivo concentrations of paeoniflorin and isoliquiritigenin were significantly higher than the reported in vitro effective doses, indicating that they could partly contribute to the therapeutic effect of GJK. Therefore, we conclude that pharmacokinetic studies of representative bioactive chemicals after administration of complex herbal products are not only necessary but also feasible. Moreover, these seven compounds that were absorbed in vivo can be used as indicator standards for quality control and for determining pharmacokinetic behavior of herbal medicines in clinical studies.
